This qualitative study investigates the perceptions of Vietnamese tertiary English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers regarding the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on student creativity in language learning. Amidst the rapid integration of AI in educational contexts, this research focuses on a relatively unexplored area: the intersection of AI technology and creative language pedagogy in the Vietnamese educational setting. Nine EFL teachers from two institutions in Vietnam, representing novice, mid-career, and near-end career stages, participated in semi-structured interviews. The study employed the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and the Creativity in Language Learning Framework (CLLF) as its theoretical basis. Thematic analysis of the interview data revealed four key themes: the perceived impact of AI on creative language practice, challenges in integrating AI with creative pedagogy, varied perceptions of AI’s role in developing student autonomy, and the impact of AI on traditional teaching methods and teacher roles. The findings indicated a spectrum of perspectives, from viewing AI as a beneficial tool for creative engagement to concerns over its potential to limit creative thinking and traditional pedagogical approaches. The study highlights the complexity of integrating AI into language learning and its influence on both teaching practices and student creativity.

The advancement of technology in education has revolutionized the learning process, transitioning from conventional to digital systems. Technology-based learning addresses the challenge of limited learning time for active students. Digital-based gamification for language learning in schools is a recent development, streamlining the teaching and learning process and enhancing outcomes. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of digital-based gamification models on the engagement and language literacy skills of eighth-grade students at Madrasah Tsanawiyah in Pariaman City. Using a quasi-experimental approach with a 2x3 factorial design, the study employs the Student Engagement in Schools Questionnaire and a Language Literacy Learning Outcomes Test as research instruments. Results indicate differences in student engagement between gamification and conventional models and between high and low-engagement groups. Interaction effects between gamification and engagement levels on language and literacy ability were observed. Overall, the gamification model proved more effective than conventional methods in enhancing engagement and learning outcomes. It is recommended that the Principal of the Madrasah implement digital-based gamification models tailored to students' needs to enhance engagement and learning outcomes.

Innovation in fish processing, such as Roullade Fish, offers an effective way to increase consumption. Roullade is a dish made by rolling or wrapping minced meat with a filling.
